Another Good Turnout

Another great turn out for the Sunday Long Run. Rudiger, Jeff and I started at 9:15, putting in an early 5 1/2 'Around the Block'. Then we met up with Ann, Brad, Ed, Christina & Newt to head up past the golf course to the dam. The pace was a consistent 9-9:30. With about 2 miles to go, I wanted to put in a strong finish. I started out at a 8:00 pace, then dropped to 7:30, then just over 7. I felt very strong running down Court Street. I know the weekly runs with the Keenyans have improved both my speed and stamina. A total of 40 miles for the week, and no major problems. 11 weeks to Boston. Next week 18 again on Sunday, then alternate 20/22 & 18. Mid week miles should go up only slightly.
